Help Plan My Meals In Las Vegas

I’m not much of a gambler. So my wife and I are headed to Las Vegas to shop, to sun, and to stuff our faces. The food scene in Vegas has come a long way since the days of the $2.99 buffet. Just about every major chef in the world has an outpost in Vegas.

So we need your help. My wife has curated an insanely large list of possible restaurants. We have four lunches and three dinners to enjoy. Share your thoughts in the comments, and I’ll review the whole thing when I get back.

Bouchon – Venetian brunch
Border Grill – Top Chef Masters chefs
Rick Bayless’ Mundo
